• Excerpt from The Texas Mathematics Teachers' Bulletin, Vol. 2: No. 1, October 15, 1916In the last bulletin some notion was given in regard to the manner in which students may use formulas and statements al ready given in letters. It was seen that all rules of Arithmetic may be given in the short-hand statements with letters. It is now our purpose to suggest a method of proceeding so that pupils may learn to use this new language or mode of expres sion and hence think in letters instead of numbers. To gain such a power on the part of the pupil some little time and train ing will be necessary. It. Must come through practice and drill by the teacher. Nothing will be so valuable here to the pupil as a, skillful teacher in regular outlined lessons extending over a period of time sufficient to enable the pupile to gain this power of thought expression. One or two recitations per week during the last year before Algebra proper is begun is suggested.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
